  Hello

  If I understand the question; the adapter is damage and you try to fix the wrong adapter is good?

  Look, man. you shouldn't do that!
  You need to buy a new adapter! These adapters are not expensive.

  To be honest, I doubt that you can order a new single chip (However what this chip can be) for the AC adapter.
  As far as I know if something would be wrong with an AC adapter, then, the entire part needs to be replaced

  Good bye

• Qosmio G20 error message: problem with the cooling system has been detected

  I'm trying to fix a Qosmio G20 (which is about 3 years old, it is no longer in warranty).

  Error message: Warning: a problem with the cooling system has been detected.

  I managed to remove the outer case and observe the operation of the machine, and basically one of the fans does not at all. The fan which is closest to the power connector seems to work very well (he seems to be turning a lot, do not know if this is normal), but the other fan who does not seem to move at all.

  When I put in place the case and on the machine, I noticed after a few minutes the vent of the fan working heat sink had warm enough, while led the non-working fan remained cool.

  I cleaned the fan from dust and have also changed the BIOS battery mode mode high performance, but the problem still exists.

  I would be grateful if someone could give advice if the problem is the fan or something else.

  If the fan is the problem, where I can buy a: i live in the United Kingdom?

  Hello

  I think there might be something wrong with the cooling module and the replacement would be necessary.
  Usually, this should be done by an authorized provider (ASP) in your country.

  Technicians could replace it with a new part and also could renew the thermal grease which is placed between the module and the CPU cooling.

  So contact the ASP in your country and ask for later handling.

  By the way; also, you can buy the cooling of the ASP module!

  Good luck

• Qosmio G20 - could not get the video to display on the LCD screen

  I have a laptop Toshiba Qosmio G20, running Windows XP MCE.

  The DVD player on board isn't sounds very well so I thought I would plug an external DVD drive to expand its use. After a lot of internet research, I finally found how to do this. Here's my setup.

  Using the monitor port I used the adapter 3 RCA jacks. (There is no S-video on the DVD drive and an adapter did not work). I finally discovered that in order to get the image on the screen, I have to use Fn + 4. Now, here's where I'm having the problem. I can't get the video to display on my external LCD. FN + 5 didn't do. The monitor is an I - inc AH191D and is connected by VGA cable. There is no driver other than the one for the VISTA operating system... That is why it is not anywhere in the Device Manager.
  Here are the settings I use in order to have all that shows on my desk, shows on the monitor.

  In Control Panel open to the screen. Properties
  Number chosen 1 - multiple monitors GeForce Go6600 video card...
  Advanced under
  the GeForce G06600 tab,
  nViewDisplay Mode: clone 1 a 1 b
  The main screen: digital flat screen
  Secondary display: AH191

  I also tried using the properties of controls on Toshiba. He says under TV output TV output but gives options of the program, but I don't know what I would use. Any ideas out there?

  Wait I'm confused, if you try to send the output of your external DVD drive in the laptop, and then display the image on an external monitor attached to laptop?

  If you use the DVD player on your laptop, it will be good quality S-video as a signal of low resolution.

  Is there something wrong with the DVD player?

  If it's just the DVD software you don't like, you can download other DVD players. PowerDVD is excellent, its better than WinDVD and other players in my opinion.

• Qosmio G20 - Blue LED for the volume does not work on Windows 7

  Hello

  I have a minor problem. Yesterday, I update my Qosmio G20 on 2 GB of RAM and I have install Windows 7. Everything works fine even better than XP, but I notice that my blue led lights for volume no longer works.

  Is there a driver I need to install or any solution that these blue lights for the volume can function again?

  Hi Gabriel,

  I m not Qosmio G20 owner but I m asking you to install Windows 7. I think XP would be the best choice for this portable little plu

  Normally the lighting on Toshiba laptop to install the package of added value. It s is only not for this model, so I put t know if it will work. You should try to download from another model of laptop that is Windows 7 supported.

  In addition also check the BIOS if lighting is enabled.

• Qosmio G20: How to get rid of the large green volume screen?

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio G20 I bought at the Japan last year and have since changed drivers and English operating system. However one thing ive noticed, distinguished by the Japanese put in place, it is that whenever I adjust the Volume level by using the wheel on the right side of the laptop, a large green level Volume display appears on the screen. I want to get rid of this cos it takes place close to half of the screen. The Japanese version had this problem.

  I checked all the settings in the Panel and the various sections of both properties but couldn't find anything.

  Suggestions how to remove it? Qosmio users have this on their screen?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Berga is right. This volume indication disappears shortly after.

• Qosmio G20: cursor jumps typing the letter

  Hi everyone, my Qosmio G20 gives me headaches! When I try to type a letter or article suddenly the cursor jumps back lines and I find myself typing in the middle of a previous sentence. Then sometimes it just deletes a paragraph I just typed.
  Any suggestions as to why? And more importantly on how to behave?
  I would be happy to advice.

  Thank you.
  Ronnie

  Yes, it's because of the touchpad. To disable and enter in peace, just press Fn + F9. This will temporarily disable the touchpad. When you are finished typing, press Fn + F9 again, it will re-enable the touchpad.
  Later,.

• Qosmio G20-114: what are the features of hard drive?

  I just deleted one of my harddrives to my G20 114 so that I can work on my data while my laptop was being repaired.

  My plan was to put in a case of hard drve 2.5 "usb. I was also going to use a spare hard drive 100 GB I need to act as a backup of the operating system drive.

  However, it seems that the arrangemnt pins on the drive, I removed from my Qosmio is different from what I'm used to and it does not seem to hold in the external box. I guess also for this reason that the spare drive I used to fit into the Qosmio. I guess I must be missing something as this may not be the case here. They use some sort of different player in these machines or have I forgot something obvious?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  AFAIK the Qosmio G20 was delivered with S - ATA drives.
  The HARD drive is fixed by 4 screws on the HARD drive carrier.
  Did you remove this media from HARD disk?
  This is perhaps a question why the HARD drive does not fit into the case.

• Qosmio G20: How to format the HARD drive?

  Hello!

  I bought Qosmio G20 last week and now I want to install Windows XP MCE (not recovery, but a CD in Windows XP CD) on this subject but I have a problem formatting of hard drives. There are two hard disks, and when I try to put in the form of Win 98 it is said as "formatting is not supported on C:" or "formatting is not supported on D:". I want to do before installing new windows because I want to create multiple partitions, but to do that I need to format the disc first.

  Can someone tell me what I need to do to format discs in this way?

  Hello

  You cannot format the HARD C drive because the operating system is running on this HARD drive.
  What you can do is to use the 3rd party software that creates the partitions on the HARD disk on the system running. I use partition Magic 8 to create and manage partitions.

  Hello Franklin

  It is very nice to hear that you have decided to buy this laptop fantastic. For me, is a bit too expensive and I buy used a one day. A friend of mine has one and I'm very impressed.

  On this unit are preinstalled many different tools and I recommend you to carefully read the user manuals and pick up information on the features. As far as I know battery monitoring is possible with the tool. With this tool, you can control the use of the battery and save a lot of energy if you use a device in battery mode.

  Toshiba has designed tool system back up is unknown to me, but you can use the built-in Windows tools (tool to backup and restore and restore system perhaps tool).
